South Korean local governments are implementing various initiatives to promote transparency and integrity within public administration and the community.

In Dangjin City, officials launched the ‘Integrity Campaign for a Greater Dangjin’ during the 78th Chungcheongnam-do Citizens Sports Festival. The campaign, supported by local leadership and emergency services, aims to instill values of transparency in both public officials and citizens through ongoing education.

Other municipalities have adopted interactive methods to foster organizational integrity. In Buk-gu, Daegu, local leaders held sessions to address generational gaps and communication styles among employees. Similarly, Jecheon City utilized musical performances and digital voting to engage approximately 300 officials in discussions regarding organizational values and citizen trust.
